NOTES:

  terminology:     x/y    slide from x up to y
                   hx     hammer on to x
		   px     pull off to x

  I have not attempted to indicate rhythm or timing in any way.
  "|" symbols demarcate sections of music and not measures.

  For line 4 and 5, finger like so:

      ----------- nth fret
      | | | | 1 |
      -----------
      | | | 2 | 3*
      -----------
      | | | | | |    * the third finger only frets when appropriate.

Next comes a chord progression which leads into the main part of the song,
which is one bar each of:

   A#  C#  A  G  D  A#  D#  A

Then the verses...

Verse I

A#
In the sad town

     A
Cold iron hands clap

    D                  A
The party of clowns outside

D                      A
Rain falls in grey far away

A#      D#                A#   G#
Please, please, baby lemonade

Verse II follows the same chord progression as verse I:

In the evening
Sun going down when
The Earth streams in in the morning
Send a cage through the post
Make your name like a ghost
Please, please, baby lemonade

Verse III alters the progression slightly:

A#
I'm screaming

A
I met you this way

       D               A
You're nice to me like ice

G
In the clock they sent

          D
Through a washing machine

A#                         A
Come around, make it soon, so alone

A#      D#                A#  G#
Please, please, baby lemonade


Then comes a guitar solo, which is played over the same chord
progression that leads into the verses (A# C# A ...).

After this, verses I and II are repeated, and then the
song closes with A# G# played repeatedly (in the fashion of
the end of the verse) with the intro chord progression played over it,
which fades out...
